Devs for the Steam game Task Force are abusing Game Bans for their own purposes. These bans appear on your Steam profile and unlike VAC, they will never disappear. Many falsely banned victims have gone to the Steam reviews, which the devs cannot censor. You can read them all here.
I also received a false ban. In Discord, I was invited for a playtest and given a steam key. After redeeming, it was immediately revoked and I received the Game Ban. The dev also blocked me on Discord and their community server. I had zero playtime in the game, simply impossible to have cheated. They know they can get away with it, as this abuse has been happening for years. Several YouTubers have spoken out as well.
Unfortunately, Valve refuses to act. Steam support has stopped responding to my support ticket. My dear 14k games Steam profile page and reputation will be forever marked as a cheater. I and many others feel powerless. Hopefully this post will prompt Valve to finally take action!

Before I used to spend days modding Fallout 3 and 4, only to get bored after 30 minutes of gameplay. This time it’s different. I sank around 12 hours into it (the plan was to give it about an hour and go about my day) and ended up sleep-deprived because of how good it is.
Every encounter is potentially …
